Smiths Falls Dominion Tankard Jan. 27th – Feb. 2nd

I donated my curling broom as an auction item for Ontario's 2014 Dominion Tankard. One of the volunteers took a photo of me with the Tankard!

The Tankard cup competition begins TODAY!

Unfortunately, despite having donated my signed broom for the silent auction fundraiser, hubby is having surgery and we cannot attend!

You know we don't curl. But the cats do! We work out when we watch curling. Does that count?

I've seen curling and wondered what it was like to play with it.

Sending you lots of aloha for your husband. My husband is going in for an angiogram this week so that's a worry too.

Now I'm really lost as to how the broom of a non curler should be in a fund raiser!

...and there were wishes of quick recovery, regardless of procedure, for hubby. YAM xx

I've learned to like hockey, but curling is still a bit confusing. Maybe I should visit the curling rink in Powell River to get some pointers. They even have free lessons. - Margy
